Power Metal Resources plc
("Power Metal" or the "Company")
Quarterly Business Operational Update
Power Metal Resources PLC (LON:POW), the London listed
exploration company seeking large-scale metal discoveries across
its global project portfolio, announces the March 2022 quarterly
business operational update for shareholders.
Paul Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Power Metal Resources
plc, commented:
"We built our portfolio for a time when metal prices would rise,
when metal supply shortages would become exposed, and when
participants in the metals space would see the strategic value of a
well-constructed portfolio of active mineral projects.
Power Metal has benefited from a 3-year long opportunity to
build this portfolio, through challenging market conditions. With
entrepreneurial hard work, our team has positioned the business
with the right combination of commodity, geographical and
geological diversification.
Although we face many global challenges, we find ourselves today
in an environment where governments, financial institutions, large
corporations and major metal producers openly recognise the
importance of secure strategic metal supply. These various
organisations know that the large-scale discoveries of tomorrow
rely upon the gregarious and bold explorers of today.
Below you will see our highlights for the quarter to March 2022.
Here we present details of Power Metal's four operational drill
programmes, four spin-out/disposal activities, an advancement of
strategic uranium interests and our other various district scale
mineral opportunities.
We did not build our portfolio to stay wedded to underperforming
or sub-optimal projects and in the last three years the Company has
taken action to cease expenditure in the Ivory Coast, Cameroon and
DRC, in the latter case, on hold pending ongoing operational
conditions being met. If we don't see real value or an adequate
commercial pathway for any project we will act as we always have;
decisively.
I trust this quarterly report, and future reports that follow,
will help investors track our operational progress and
expectations. We have slimmed down the content in this report to
focus on the latest project status and planned next steps for
each."

e-results/15396365
From a limited dataset received in early
2021, effort applied to Tati has been focused
on building technical understanding. The
work undertaken by the Company in 2021,
which included soil sampling, ground-based
magnetics & radiometric surveys, as well
as prospecting and rock sampling led to
the delineation of multiple prospective
kilometre scale soil anomalies.
Drill testing confirmed various target geological
formations below Kalahari sand cover and
confirmed near surface gold mineralisation.
Our work also identified more intensive
geochemical anomalies within adjacent land,
representing an extension of an identified
major regional structure - a new prospecting
licence application has been submitted covering
this new area.
We expect to announce next steps on this
highly prospective Project in the near future.

Under the original 2020 Alamo agreement,
a US$50,000 pre-production royalty payment
("PPR Payment") was due by 31/12/2021 and
given the late start of the exploration
work programme, an amended PPR Payment deadline
date was previously agreed being 14 days
after the receipt of all analytical results
from the 2021 test pitting programme, or
31/03/2022, whichever was the earlier.
Power Metal awaits receipt of a technical
report highlighting the results from the
exploration programme and has therefore
agreed a further extension of the PPR Payment
deadline date to 14 days after the receipt
of that report or 15/06/2022, whichever
is earlier.
The amendment will allow Power Metal to
review all 2021 exploration data before
making a decision on next steps with the
Project.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Athabasca Uranium
Saskatchewan, Canada Uranium projects in the Athabasca Basin
(Uranium) region in the Province of Saskatchewan,
POW 100% Canada are attracting considerable interest,
with a rising uranium price stimulating
a rush to secure prospective exploration
properties.
Power Metal are positioned well here and
now has exposure to 7 projects which cover
some 450km(2) of highly prospective land.
Internal development and commercialisation
of our uranium interests are both valid
pathways and we expect both will play a
part in the development of our Canadian
uranium portfolio going forward. With that
in mind, we undertook an extensive data
compilation exercise in respect of all 7
properties building a database of historic
exploration findings.
Technical review across all the property
data has been underway for some time, and
we have brought a uranium specialist into
the Power Metal team to accelerate this
technical work and assist with commercialisation
activities thereafter.
In the quarter we have released the findings
of the technical review across 5 of our
7 properties so far. An overview of the
data compilation exercise, together with
results from the first property reviewed,
Tait Hill, can be viewed in our 14/01/2022
announcement found below:

asin/15319141
Reitenbach is considered likely to be the
first to enter a commercialisation process
and we are advancing this at present. As
a result, the Company commissioned a National
Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") technical
report on the Property, as announced on
24/03/2022. The commissioning of the NI
43-101 report along with technical findings
from the Cook Lake and E-12 properties can
be viewed at the link below:

Also, on 31/03/2022 Power Metal released
the findings from a technical review of
the Soaring Bay property, with uranium prospectivity
confirmed and new ground staked increasing
the property size by 71% to cover the additional
prospective areas identified.
We expect that the Canadian uranium opportunities
will be a highly active area of our business
over the coming weeks and months.

Financial Position Power Metal Working Capital
As at 28/02/2022 Power Metal held cash and
listed investments of GBP2,482,960 ("Working
Capital").
Working Capital is money available to deploy
on payment of corporate costs and operational,
notably exploration, expenditure.
Power Metal Assets
As at 28/02/2022 Power Metal's unaudited
Balance Sheet showed total assets of GBP10,929,668
("Total Assets").
Total Assets includes the following categories:
* Project investments and Power Metal group
intercompany loans
* Pre-IPO vehicle valuations (always
acquisition/investment cost until pre-IPO financing
is undertaken)
* Working Capital (see above)
* Other sundry assets.
Future Financing Sources
The Company has multiple sources of additional
financing, not all of which may be necessary
or occur in the foreseeable future:
* As an AIM listed vehicle traditional equity financing
can be undertaken to raise additional sums where
considered necessary.
* Through the exercise of financing and transactional
warrants or the exercise of director, team member or
adviser options (see Table 1 below for a full
breakdown of all warrants and options outstanding as
at 31/03/2022). If exercised in full, this will bring
in GBP8,232,573 additional cash into the Company
(GBP9,232,573 if Thor Mining plc exercise their 4p
warrants within 12 months and exercise replacement
warrants at an exercise price of 8p).
* In addition to the above, the Company will benefit
from the planned listing of four pre-IPO vehicles as
outlined above which will, if successful and in line
with expected valuations on listing, add considerably
to overall Power Metal asset value.
* It is anticipated that further value generative
events may occur including additional spin-outs into
new listed vehicles and outright disposal of certain
business interests.

NOTES TO EDITORS
Power Metal Resources plc - Background
Power Metal Resources plc (LON:POW) is an AIM listed metals
exploration company which finances and manages global resource
projects and is seeking large scale metal discoveries.
The Company has a principal focus on opportunities offering
district scale potential across a global portfolio including
precious, base and strategic metal exploration in North America,
Africa and Australia.
Project interests range from early-stage greenfield exploration
to later-stage prospects currently subject to drill programmes.
Power Metal will develop projects internally or through
strategic joint ventures until a project becomes ready for disposal
through outright sale or separate listing on a recognised stock
exchange thereby crystallising the value generated from our
internal exploration and development work.
Value generated through disposals will be deployed internally to
drive the Company's growth or may be returned to shareholders
through share buy backs, dividends or in-specie distributions of
assets.
